Many organizations rely on long-standing, embedded logging frameworks that span multiple applications, making modernization challenging. This session demonstrates how teams can continue using their existing application logging while unlocking the advanced capabilities of Azure Log Analytics through Azure Data Collection Rules (DCRs) and Data Collection Endpoints (DCEs).

Attendees will learn how to ingest log data directly from server-based log files using DCRs, map and transform data for Log Analytics, and incrementally transition log pipelines from third-party tools, such as Datadog, to Azure Data Collection Endpoints. The session provides practical guidance for modernizing logging architectures without rewriting applications, enabling greater observability, scalability, and integration within the Azure monitoring ecosystem.
